Still searching for the chassis underguard

A shot in the dark but could this be trimmed to fit?

It's now 1.30am here and just finished the shell.....

I'm not a good painter at all and only had aerosol cans but I think it turned out ok :)

Will look alright with new white wheels.....maybe I could also paint these ones and revitalise them?

Looks excellent dan..nice old skool colours

Looks sweet! I have never got into it yet... I have had my clear body and decals for months. Think I am a coward when it comes to paint more than one-color-bodies :(

DanB4 31-05-2012 06:26 PM

Finished!

I have been busy with my dremmel and the polishing wheel. This is a racing rebuild and will not be a shelf queen, ive only replaced the bearings and fitted a new alloy floor plate as the fiberglass original was very weak with a few cracks. The shocks have had new o rings and fresh oil added and all parts are just cleaned up and freed off, must say the car has held up very well better than my Avante i rebuilt earlier this year.
I have ordered a new body from Marwan today but undecided on a colour scheme.

As I can see in the picture there is an chassis underguard included.

Very nice car and well done polishing the parts. But, did you not post in the wrong thread? :o :wub
